First Boer War
1880–1881 CE
The First Boer War followed British annexation of the South African Republic in 1877 and growing Boer resistance to imperial rule. Fighting began in December 1880 as Boer commandos besieged British garrisons and defeated relief forces.
The conflict culminated in the British defeat at Majuba Hill in February 1881. A negotiated settlement restored Transvaal self-government under limited British suzerainty.
